Abstract:

Red amaranthus (Amaranths) is one of the
common indigenous vegetables in Uganda.
Access to the seed of Red amaranths is one of
the major limitations to its production. In order
to grow Red amaranths seed as a business, the
following should be considered:
Profitability compared to other seed crops
Capital and skill required
Available market and current weather
conditions
Registration process by the seed certification
agencies.
